Rabbiniformes: Rabbiniformes are an order of mammals, with two families: Rabbinidae (rabbits and hares) and pika (pikas).
The color of rabbit eyes is related to the color of its fur. Black rabbit's eyes are black, gray rabbit's eyes are gray, and white rabbit's eyes are transparent. Then why do we see the white rabbit's eyes are red? This is because the bloodshot (capillaries) in the white rabbit's eyes reflect the outside light, and the transparent eyes are red.
Rabbits' eyes are red, blue and brown, and some rabbits have different eyes. Perhaps because the rabbit is Nocturnal Animals, its eyes can gather a lot of light, and it can see things even in the dark. In addition, because the rabbit's eyes are on both sides of the face, it has a wide field of vision and can see things around it clearly. Some people say that rabbits can even see their own spine. However, it cannot distinguish three-dimensional things. Gray rabbit's eyes are gray. Rabbits come in all colors, and so do their eyes. That's because they have something called pigment in their bodies. Rabbits with gray pigments have gray hair and eyes; Rabbits with melanin have black hair and eyes. The white rabbit has no pigment in its body and its eyes are colorless. The red we see is the color of blood, not the color of eyeball, so its eyes are naturally red.
The following is the personal rabbit raising experience of the baby giant salamander:
26 expression languages of rabbits
There are more and more rabbits now. Although the rabbit's expression is dull, it is actually emotional.
1. cooing sound
Usually dissatisfied with the owner's behavior or another rabbit. The cooing represents that the rabbit is very dissatisfied and angry. Just like rabbits don't like being held and touched, they will complain. If you don't stop that behavior, you may be bitten!
2. Jet sound
The sound of the jet represents that the rabbit feels threatened by something or some behavior. If your action makes the rabbit feel threatened, if you don't stop that action, you may be bitten.
scream
The scream of rabbits, like humans, usually represents fear or pain. If you suddenly hear a rabbit screaming, the owner should pay more attention at once, because maybe the rabbit is injured.
grind one's teeth
A. grinding your teeth loudly means that the rabbit feels pain. You'd better take the rabbit to the vet. B. gently grinding your teeth means that the rabbit is very satisfied and happy. When the rabbit gently grinds its teeth, if you reach out and touch the rabbit's chin, you can feel the grinding of the teeth. At this time, the rabbit's eyes are usually half open.
grind one's teeth
When a rabbit cackles, it means pain. At this time, rabbits usually bend up and sit with their ears pressed back.
complain
Like cats, rabbits purr when they are satisfied. But the difference between rabbits and cats is that cats make sounds with their throats, while rabbits make sounds with their teeth.
hush
Rabbits usually hiss at another rabbit. The hiss is a warning to fight back, mainly to tell another rabbit not to come over, or it will attack.
8. the sound of estrus
The sound of estrus is different from cooing. The call of estrus is a deep, heavy and regular call. Generally, the male rabbit will make this cry when chasing the female rabbit. Sterilization can reduce this estrus behavior, but it can't completely eliminate it. After sterilization, the male rabbit will still chase the female rabbit.
9. beat around the bush
Rabbits may turn in circles when they are adults. Turning in circles is a courtship behavior, and sometimes purrs at the same time. Usually, courtship in circles begins, which means the rabbit should be neutered. Turning around may also mean wanting attention or asking for food.
10. Jump
When the rabbit is happy, it will jump in place and turn slightly in mid-air. Sometimes rabbits shake their heads when they jump. When they dance, it's like dancing. Especially dwarfs/mini rabbits, they prefer to express their happiness and enjoyment by jumping.
1 1. (disease)
Some rabbits don't like people touching their things. When the owner cleans the cage and changes the food plate, the rabbit may jump on it. This means that he doesn't like it, and jumping on it is an attack.
12. Stand on tiptoe
When the rabbit also stands on tiptoe, it is a warning. They will keep this action until the danger passes, which can last for a few seconds to a few minutes. When the rabbit is angry, it may also stand on tiptoe, which also means warning.
13. Stamp your feet
When rabbits are afraid, they stamp their feet with their hind legs. In the wild, when the enemy approaches, the rabbit will stamp its hind legs to inform its companions of the danger.
14. Sleep on your side
The rabbit sleeps on its side, and stretching its legs represents a sense of security. If the master doesn't disturb him, the rabbit may fall asleep soon.
15. Keep your body down.
When the rabbit tries to keep its body down, it means that it is nervous and feels dangerous to get close. In the wild, when rabbits feel close to danger, they will try to lower their bodies to avoid being seen. And pet rabbits will also have this behavior.
16. Bend down
Squatting is not the same as lowering your body. When squatting down, the rabbit's muscles are relaxed, which is a manifestation of feeling relaxed.
17. Lie on the ground and turn around.
This means that the rabbit is in a good mood and feels comfortable.
18. Push your hand away.
The rabbit pushes your hand away, which shows that it thinks it has done it, and tells its master to leave it alone.
19. Keep your nose and body close to the cage.
This means begging, hoping to get something or treatment. For example, the rabbit wants to eat snacks and wants his master to let him out.
20. nibble
Bite is in the rabbit world, which means "okay, I've had enough!" " ".They will use a bite to tell their master to stop the present action.
2 1. Lick your hand
In rabbit's body language, licking one's hand expresses gratitude. If your rabbit licks your hand, it means he wants to say thank you!
22. twitch your tail
Twisting one's tail is a sign of skinning, just like sticking out one's tongue. Usually rabbits twitch their tails back and forth when jumping. For example, if the owner wants to catch the rabbit back to the cage, the rabbit suddenly jumps up and twitches its tail at the same time, which means "you won't catch me".
23. Wipe things with your chin
Because there is a fragrant gland in the position of the rabbit's chin, the rabbit will use it to wipe things and leave its own smell to divide the territory. Humans can't smell this smell, but rabbits know it.
Spray urine
Adult male rabbits that are not sterilized may have the behavior of peeing. Peeping is a way to divide the territory and occupy the mother rabbit in the rabbit world. Female rabbits may also have the behavior of spitting urine, but mainly male rabbits have more such behavior.
25. There is shit everywhere.
Rabbits usually shit a lot somewhere. If rabbits defecate in different places, it is actually an act of territorial demarcation.
26. plucking hair
The mother rabbit will pluck her hair the day before giving birth. They pluck hair from their chests and feet and use the plucked hair to build nests to keep rabbits warm. Rabbits will pluck their hair if they are pregnant.
Rabbit is one of the twelve zodiac animals in China, ranking fourth, corresponding to the base of earthly branches.
This rabbit has 28 teeth.

Many people think that rabbits only eat carrots and lettuce and don't even need to drink water. In fact, this is all wet. Rabbits need enough grains, fruits and vegetables, hay and water every day to keep healthy. The simplest and most nutritious food is ready-made rabbit food, which is mixed with a variety of grains, vitamins and minerals, and a little anticoccidial medicine is added to control the beneficial secretion in the stomach.
Body language of rabbits
Rabbits rarely make sounds, so to understand rabbits, we must understand their body language. When it stomps on the ground with its hind foot, it means that it is frightened and threatened. If its head is forward and its tail is upright, it means that it is ready to fight back, so you'd better not touch it, because it will bite you at any time. For example, a rabbit stands up on its hind legs, which means it is detecting its surroundings with its vision and smell ... If it touches you with its nose, it wants you to play with it. The rabbit licks your hand to show that it likes you. When it rubs an object with its chin, it is a way for rabbits to set its sphere of influence, just like dogs use urine to determine their sphere of influence ... if it eats its own feces, it is a way for them to absorb vitamin B. Usually, they eat it from the anus. This is a normal phenomenon, so there is no need to make a fuss. When they are holding something or walking around with hay, it means that they want to make a hut, which is a symbol of estrus or pregnancy of the female rabbit.
Rabbits are not afraid of water, but they are quite prone to get sick in a humid environment, and foods with high water content are also prone to diarrhea, so they naturally avoid water.
Snowshoe rabbits change their hair twice a year, turning white in autumn and brownish gray in spring. They are called snowshoe rabbits because their hind legs grow thick white hair in winter.
Like snowshoes, they are more convenient to walk in the snow.
Rabbits are one of many mammals. A female rabbit can give birth to 20 young rabbits every year. Rabbits also like to eat crops, which makes farmers have a headache.

How to raise rabbits?
In fact, rabbits are a bit like cats, independent, but sometimes they are very clingy and afraid of loneliness, so you must take time out to play with them every day.
If there is no safe space (such as balcony), you can also keep it in a cage, which has more space (the cage for small dogs can). You can't keep it in a cage all the time, but let it out for more than an hour or two every day.
Prepare a feed bowl and a water bowl in the cage, grind them with a clean piece of wood with a diameter of 5- 10 cm, and put some dry sawdust and straw (dry towels are also acceptable).
Rabbits are omnivorous. Feed them once in the morning and once in the evening. You can buy rabbit feed in the bird garden, or you can add some grain or molar feed to the feed.
In order to balance nutrition, don't just feed fruits and vegetables, such as water spinach, celery, Qingjiang vegetables, sweet potato leaves, carrots, apples, guava and so on. Because the rabbit's defecation function is poor, it is best not to contain pesticides and to clean it thoroughly. After washing, dry it in a ventilated place 1 ~ 2 hours (do not expose to the sun)
Reference L How to Raise Rabbit http://studentweb.bhes.tpc.edu.tw/90s/s850869/www/
Rabbits should be kept in the rabbit house, but the ground should be paved with cement, covered with soil and hay, and kept dry, ventilated and sunny, and the rabbit house should not be wet.
A female rabbit that gave birth to a bunny can't be raised with a male rabbit. The mother rabbit can't give birth until one month after mating. Rabbits, Japanese rabbits, white rabbits and rabbits are kept in ordinary families. It doesn't matter if different kinds of rabbits are put together.
Rabbits are very afraid of water. If they eat water, they will have diarrhea. Originally, rabbits wanted to eat salt, but because the salt gas in Penghu is very heavy, they don't need to eat salt. Many people in Zhuwan once raised rabbits because rabbits are easy to raise.
Male and female rabbits can only be slaughtered or sold when they are raised to five or six kilograms. Rabbit meat is best fried and delicious, which is also related to whether rabbits exercise or not. Rabbits are good at defecation, and they all stink, but these excrement can be used as fertilizer!
Some rabbits are raised by modern people just for viewing, not for eating meat or selling money. Once, Cai won a rabbit at a stall on the Ma Highway. It was very cute. He took it back to school and put it in a small plastic box. The whole school students kept touching the rabbit out of curiosity, and the rabbit died in less than two days. The sixth grade students buried the rabbit in the open space next to the toilet. It seems impossible to feed rabbits just by interest. (Abstract
The common mistake of rabbit breeders is 1, which feeds concentrate. Some people mistakenly think that rabbits will grow fast as long as they are fed more concentrate, and some even feed concentrate only three times a day. Severe diarrhea leads to enteritis and death. The reason is that excessive concentrated solution decomposes and ferments into a large number of organic acids in cecum, which destroys the normal weak alkaline environment of microorganisms and leads to the imbalance of microbial ecological balance.
2. It is very effective for rabbits to replace granular feed with whole grains, but granular feed is not popular in rural areas at present, so some farmers use whole grains instead of granular feed. This feeding method is unscientific. When whole grains are fed, a considerable part of them enter the gastrointestinal tract without full chewing, which reduces the contact area with digestive juice, so that they cannot be completely absorbed by digestive juice and enter the cecum, where they will ferment abnormally, causing harmful bacteria to produce enterotoxin, leading to diarrhea or enteritis.
3. Abuse of antibiotics. In order to prevent rabbit diseases, some rabbit farmers often add antibiotics such as oxytetracycline, bacillary dysentery and gentamicin to their feed, which is harmful to rabbits and unscientific. Rabbits are herbivores, and the cellulose in feed mainly depends on the activities of various microorganisms in the intestine. When antibiotics are added to rabbits, a large number of beneficial microorganisms in their intestines are suppressed and killed, and at the same time, pathogenic bacteria in the intestines, especially salmonella, produce drug resistance and multiply in large numbers. Over time, once the rabbit gets sick. It will bring difficulties to cure diseases.
4. The vaccine is frozen and preserved. Some people often store the purchased vaccines in the refrigerator or freezer, so the stored vaccines often lose their medicinal value. The correct way is to store the purchased seedlings in the refrigerator at 4-8℃ or under the shading condition at room temperature.
5, improper use of drugs or misuse of drugs. At present, many rabbit farmers in rural areas still use the old method to treat rabbit scabies, that is, wash the affected area with soap and then scrub it with trichlorfon solution. As we all know, this method is very dangerous and extremely unsafe for rabbits. The reason is that soap is alkaline. When it encounters trichlorfon solution, it will have a toxic effect similar to the third section, which is easy to cause rabbit poisoning. The correct way is to wash the affected area with soapy water, then dry it with a cloth and then apply trichlorfon solution.
When rabbits suffer from enteritis and diarrhea, most rabbit farmers are used to treating them with oxytetracycline, sulfadiazine and furazolidone. There are adsorbents such as activated carbon and charcoal powder, which are taken orally by indigenous methods and have a good effect. Some people try to take the above drugs at the same time, but the result is counterproductive. The reason is that taking the adsorbent together with antibiotics is not only ineffective, but also adsorbs antibiotics and cannot play a role.

When people catch rabbits, they often scratch their ears, which is not desirable. Because most of rabbits' ears are cartilage, they can't bear the weight of the whole body. The nerve and blood vessels in rabbits' ears are rich, which is easy to cause ear root injury and drooping ears. When catching rabbits, it is not appropriate to lift the hind legs upside down. If the hind legs are lifted upside down, the rabbit's head will face down, which will easily lead to brain congestion and death due to violent struggle. Grasping the waist will damage subcutaneous tissue and internal organs.
The correct way to catch a rabbit: firstly, grab both ears together with the neck skin, gently lift it, and quickly hold the rabbit's hip with the other hand, so that the weight of the rabbit mainly falls on the hand that catches the rabbit's body, which will not damage the rabbit, but also prevent the rabbit from catching people.

Experiments and practice have proved that some grasses and wild vegetables can't be used to feed rabbits to avoid poisoning and death.
& ltp> 1. Under any circumstances, the following poisonous weeds and wild vegetables should not be fed: potato seedlings, tomato seedlings, larch, trollius chinensis, Pulsatilla chinensis, rhododendron deciduous, asarum, delphinium, castor, Hedyotis diffusa, aconite, star anise, black fairy, daytime fairy, belladonna, taro, Peganum harmala, Datura stramonium and wild grape seedlings.
& ltp> Second, feeding some grass and vegetables at a certain stage of rabbit growth and development is easy to cause poisoning. For example, sweet clover with yellow flowers and white flowers is poisonous when the buds bloom, so it is not suitable for feeding rabbits; Buckwheat and rape are poisonous when they bloom, so they should not be fed to rabbits. Flax is poisonous when the seeds and stems are ripe, so it should not be fed to rabbits. Potato buds are easy to be poisoned when fed to rabbits.
& ltp> Third, the breast milk of lactating female rabbits has an unpleasant smell, including colchicine, wet forest grass, medicinal cowherb seed, Rumex, wild onion, stinky chamomile, arc mustard, reed Ai Ju, hemlock and so on. Young rabbits will be poisoned after feeding.
& ltp> Fourthly, rice seedlings, sorghum seedlings and the second crop of sorghum seedlings regenerated after autumn should not be fed to rabbits.

Treatment of diarrhea in rabbits
The main manifestation of diarrhea is that the feces are not spherical, thin and soft, and are porridge or watery. It can occur in rabbits of all ages, but the incidence rate of young rabbits is the highest before and after weaning, and improper handling often leads to death. There are many reasons, such as unclean feed, mixed with sediment and dirt, or moldy feed, corruption and deterioration; Feed contains too much or too little crude fiber or eats a lot of frozen feed; Drinking water in summer is unsanitary or the feeding trough is not cleaned regularly, and the residual feed is not removed in time, which leads to rancidity and illness; Suddenly changing feed, especially weaned rabbits, is more likely to get sick; The rabbit house is damp, the temperature is low, and the rabbit abdomen is cold; Oral and dental diseases can also lead to digestive disorders and diarrhea.
I. Clinical symptoms
1. Rabbits with dyspeptic diarrhea have anorexia and listlessness. Loose soft stools, porridge-like stools or water samples are polluted by wool and lose their luster. The course of the disease is long and gradually thin, weak and unwilling to exercise. Some are heterosexual, such as mat grass polluted by hair or feces and urine. Some have mild abdominal distension and abdominal pain.
2. Rabbits with gastroenteritis and diarrhea have poor appetite, general weakness, mental fatigue and elevated body temperature. Sick rabbits with severe diarrhea have thin feces like water, often mixed with blood and jelly-like mucus, and have a bad smell. Abdominal palpation showed obvious pain response. Due to severe diarrhea, the sick rabbits are in a state of dehydration and exhaustion, with low spirits, dark red conjunctiva or cyanosis, difficulty breathing and often die of collapse.
Second, the disease.
Intestinal mucosa thickening and congestion can be scraped off with a knife. Intestinal contents are usually yellow-green. In severe cases, the intestinal mucosa falls off, bleeding, the intestinal wall becomes thinner and the contents are reddish brown.
Third, prevention and control
Strengthen feeding management at ordinary times, and don't feed moldy and rotten feed and forage grass. Keep the rabbit house clean and dry, with proper temperature and good ventilation. Water tanks and sinks should be scrubbed and disinfected regularly. Drinking water should be hygienic, and straw mats should be changed frequently. Feed weaned rabbits regularly and quantitatively to prevent overeating. Feed replacement should be carried out step by step.
Treatment: If sick rabbits are found, they should stop feeding, but supply water as usual. When you are in good health, take 2 ~ 3g of laxatives such as artificial salt and 40 ~ 50ml of water. Or vegetable oil 10 ~ 20ml. Feed 2 ~ 3 yeast tablets or 4 ~ 6 lactase tablets every 1 ~ 2 hours, 2 ~ 3 times a day.
Furazolidone, sulfadiazine, dijunjing and other antibacterial drugs. Can be used when diarrhea is severe. Each rabbit takes 1 ~ 2 tablets twice a day for 2 ~ 3 days. Or use broad-spectrum antibiotics, such as gentamicin and chloramphenicol, 0.5 ~ 1 ml per rabbit, intramuscular injection, 1, twice a day for 3 days. Rabbits with poor appetite can be given stomach-strengthening drugs, such as garlic tincture, gentian tincture and tangerine peel tincture 2 ~ 4 ml. Or intravenous injection of glucose saline, 5% glucose solution 30 ~ 50ml, 20% caffeine sodium solution 1ml and vitamin C 1.0ml, 0 ~ 2 times a day for 2 ~ 3 days.

Knowledge-you must know
Here are some common misunderstandings about bunny girls. I hope you can not only know Bunny yourself, but also educate people around you who don't know Bunny. Don't misunderstand the tragedy that Tutu and Tutu's grandson died in vain because of human ignorance! Saving a rabbit's life is better than building a seven-story pagoda! Thank you!
● Rabbits don't drink water?
Rabbits are like people and other animals: they can't live without air, food and water. Drinking water helps the metabolism of rabbits, but the urination mechanism of rabbits is centralized, so rabbits need less water than other animals, not to say that rabbits don't drink water!
● Will rabbits die if they drink water?
Water is a necessity for rabbits. Drinking clean water normally is not fatal! You should drink unclean water before you have diarrhea or even die of inflammation and diarrhea! Please give the rabbit clean water, such as boiled water (not hot water), purified water, distilled water and mineral water. Don't give the rabbit tap water. Keep the kettle or basin clean, and it is best to clean and change the water every day!
● Does the rabbit grow up when drinking water?
As long as it is life, it will become bigger, and it will not become bigger, which means that it will stop life. Rabbits don't become giant rabbits by drinking water. The size of rabbits when they grow up is related to their own species and heredity. Please don't believe the rumor that a mini rabbit will become a big rabbit when drinking water!
● Restrict rabbits from drinking water?
Ordinary evil businessmen deliberately don't give rabbits water to drink in order to sell "fake mini rabbits". Rabbits who don't drink water don't eat feed because they are thirsty. Rabbits that don't eat or drink, of course, grow slowly and are very mini. In fact, they are simply malnourished. When you buy water for rabbits, rabbits will drink a lot of water because of excessive thirst, and then die. Everyone thinks it is necessary to restrict rabbits from drinking water! In fact, under the correct feeding, rabbits will control themselves, will not be thirsty, and will not drink water! And because of different seasons and eating habits, there will be different water consumption, such as drinking less in winter than in summer (summer is hot and thirsty, and so is human beings! ) If you eat too much feed, drink more water, because if you eat too much feed, you will be thirsty. If you are thirsty, drink water!
● Rabbits are not easy to raise?
Rabbits don't ask much, a space, a proper amount of food and water every day. Rabbits are quieter than cats and dogs. They are not difficult pets. What matters is whether the owner keeps them properly.
● Rabbits live short and die easily?
Under proper feeding, the average life span of rabbits is 5 ~ 12 years, but the smaller the rabbits, the shorter the average life span. And most people like to keep rabbits! Rabbits have no more diseases than cats and dogs. As long as the owner raises them correctly, they should not die young unless you buy unweaned rabbits from unscrupulous businessmen!
● Rabbits can't take a bath?
Rabbits can take a bath! Otherwise, you can't leave it dirty or shave your head, can you? However, young rabbits in three months and cold weather should avoid bathing, for fear that rabbits will lose their body temperature and die! Precautions for rabbit washing: 1. Use rabbit-specific shower gel, not human shampoo or shower gel to wash rabbits! 2. Be careful that the water temperature is not too low. 3. Rinse it clean, don't leave any shower gel for the rabbit to lick too much, it will be poisoned! 4. Dry with a dry towel and blow dry with a hair dryer. Rabbits love cleanliness. They clean themselves several times a day, and their skin has protective ingredients. Washing with water will destroy this protection and make rabbits prone to skin problems, so it is best to avoid frequent washing, preferably once every two to three months.
● Rabbits stink?
Rabbits are clean. Under normal circumstances, rabbit feces are small and odorless, but rabbit urine smells. However, if the owner can eat feed that can remove the urine odor, it can be improved. Moreover, if the rabbit cage is padded and the rabbit toilet is used for education, the rabbit cage will be cleaned easily, and it is not as smelly as everyone thinks!
● Rabbits only eat carrots?
Rabbits don't necessarily like carrots best, and more than a dozen rabbits that Yaya once raised don't like carrots. Rabbits can't just eat carrots. Carrots are cool vegetables. Excessive consumption can easily lead to diarrhea and vitamin A poisoning, especially in young rabbits within 3 months.
● Rabbits eat carrots, so their eyes are red?
This is purely human association fiction, and it is impossible for human beings to turn red because they eat more carrots. How can rabbits have this magical power? In fact, that's because the pupil's membrane (iris) has no color at all, and it can be seen through the blood inside, so it shows red eye. Once the blood stops circulating, the eyes will become transparent and turbid.
● Mini rabbits will not grow up?
There are rabbits no more than two palms in the world (the smallest variety is Bolan rabbit, which is less than 1 kg), but at present, most of the miniature rabbits introduced and sold by Taiwanese businessmen are 1 kg ~ 2.7 kg, which are not always the size of young rabbits just bought, as people think! Please remember that there is only one kind of rabbit in the world that won't grow up, and that is the rabbit that goes to heaven! Don't believe the lies of unscrupulous businessmen that miniature rabbits don't grow up. The rabbit you see is likely to die easily.
● Catch the rabbit by ear?
Nobody likes being led by the ear! Ears are important organs of rabbits. Rabbits have no sweat glands and must dissipate heat. Rabbits' ears are not scratched by people. If the rabbit's ear is scratched and causes nerve damage, it will lead to the rabbit's ear standing upright and unable to turn. Please stop everyone around you scratching the rabbit's ear!
● The rabbit has two front teeth?
It's true that rabbits have four front teeth! Open the rabbit's mouth and you will know!
Rabbits are rodents?
Rabbits are not rodents. Rabbits are rabbits of the order Rabbit. The difference is that rodents have only two upper incisors, while rabbits have four!
● White hair and red eyes are rabbits?
There are many kinds of rabbits, with different appearance characteristics, and of course different coat colors and eye colors. It's not like the stereotype that white hair and red eyes are normal rabbits!

Rabbit's body language
Rabbit's body language
If its head is forward, its ears are backward and its tail is backward and upright, it means that it is ready to fight back. You'd better not touch it, it will bite you at any time.
If a rabbit stands up on its hind legs, it means that it is detecting its surroundings with vision and smell.
If it touches you with its nose, it wants you to play with it.
The rabbit licks your hand, which means it likes you.
● If eating their own feces is a way for them to absorb vitamin B, they usually take feces from the anus to eat, which is normal. Don't make a fuss! ! ! When Nini started to eat, I called her dirty and pulled her head off and told her not to eat! It seems that I was wrong about her ...)
Tutu, like a dog, will stand on his hind feet when he wants to eat, and bend his front feet on his chest to make a plea of "give me something to eat".
When the rabbit's abdomen stretches its hind legs downward and lies on the ground (like a human) as if it is going to sleep, it means that it is in a comfortable and relaxed state. At this time, slowly and quietly approach it, lest it be frightened.
● Lying sideways on the ground with half closed eyes, or the whole rabbit is lying on the ground with its hands and feet straight, that is, it is in a static state and trusts the surrounding environment.
● When both feet step on the ground, the upper body keeps swinging, as if dancing, indicating that the rabbit is in a high mood at this time.
Rabbit's big ears have the function of correctly judging the direction of sound. As soon as it finds something wrong, it will immediately straighten its upper body and erect its ears to detect whether there is danger.
When the rabbit is bullied and played with, or feels stressed, it will show that it wants to run away. Because it hates being treated rudely, it even sticks out its claws when it is angry, so pay more attention at this time! ! !
If the rabbit is fed food it doesn't like, or if it is in a bad mood and doesn't want to talk to anyone, it will turn its back on you to show its dissatisfaction.
Hands and feet under your body indicate that you want to be touched, pampered, or taken care of by your peers. (Nini looks like a duck when doing this action, and her meat is hanging out. She is chubby and so cute! )
Running in circles also affirmed their sphere of influence, indicating that this place belongs to them. No wonder Nini often runs in circles in the cage.
● Jumping on one foot or both feet, running the "8" and bouncing back and forth all indicate that you are very happy and excited. Nini often runs like this. I'm afraid she will fall from the upstairs. I stopped to catch my breath after running. As soon as I touched her, I immediately lay flat on the ground. Is it really # *××△ ▽□? )
Two ears stand up, indicating high vigilance. If one ear stands up, it means that they are listening to various sounds and observing the external environment.
Food instructions for rabbits
Introduction to raising rabbits-diet
Text: Shanshan
There are more and more novice rabbits. Shanshan arranges a series of posts, hoping to answer the questions of rabbit friends. If there are any omissions or mistakes, please make corrections. Also, this is Shanshan's word key on the computer, which took a lot of time. Please do not reprint at will! TKS！
Q: What does Tutu eat?
A: Rabbits are herbivores, and their huge digestive system needs a lot of fiber to keep running. Insufficient fiber intake will slow down the intestinal peristalsis of rabbits, lead to excessive reproduction of bad bacteria in the intestines, and rabbits will get sick.
When buying rabbit food, its fiber content is 12%. Rabbit food is a good source of nutrition. You can provide enough nutrition to keep rabbits healthy, but you can't just eat rabbit food! Because rabbit food is nutritious, if the consumption of rabbits is not limited, it will easily lead to morbid obesity of rabbits, so rabbits should not be supplied with rabbit food indefinitely.
Because of the high water content of fresh vegetables, rabbits will have diarrhea if they eat too much; Fruit has a high sugar content, and eating too much will make rabbits swollen. These can be used as "non-staple food" and fed to rabbits in small quantities every day.
